Got some new wheels put on today, and they are a little different, but I will update when we get some nice weather so show that they aren't just lavender




We saw the originals a couple years ago and have been trying to get them ever since, I even joined a bB/materia club in Singapore to try and maybe see if they could get them Either way I ran into these, had them painted and my wife LOVES THEM! In the sun and straight on they almost match the color, the go back to a pink/lavendar at an angle. Any who enjoy, its kind of an acquired taste I know but we like it!

Original wheels:

someone makes a concave version similar to this. i've seen it on a miata.

 

They were supposed to be a throw back to these:



^ would give my first born for a set of those....drool.....

 

Hey Kanchi, I like them! Definitely different but cool!

 

Thanks! I'll be sure to post some more pics to when the sun hit them.

 

theres a set or two in houston.

maybe in my garage...

maybe not...

 

ORLY? Originals? ...PM me

 

Lookin good Erik!

And yea, the Hayashi Sakuras are sick.

 

Not a wheel choice I would have made, but it looks good! Post more in better light ASAP.

 

^^Thanks Burst! Would literally kill for an origional set ...I would too.

^WKTJ AS soon as the wind stops blowing and the rain stops coming in sideways I will

 

nice ..if the rears were a lower offset with the concave to them ..id be all over them ..i think the color looks sweet its diffrent but not crazy diffrent ..nice job!!

 

love em would like them better in 5x100

 

Looks good Erik, where did you pick em' up? And yeah, those originals are definately worth a first born.

 

Erik those are all that... I like them

 

lucky **** these are one of the wheels i want to own once in my life... (and the OG Sakuras) i wish they were more aggressive though

 

not in my garage, but theres a set of original sakuras running around houston somewhere, although last i saw was a while back.

 

^WANT!!!! I would soooooo sell my tC to build a car around those rims!

Thanks again guys, unfortuantely when I found these the only came in blue w/ a polished face & lip only in 17x7 and in a +40 offset. Wanted to put something different on, that caught your attention but nothing too obtrusive/enticing for thieves. I too wish they made it more a aggressive/staggered but looks like they played it safe so they can fit on Hondas

 

Ebay!!!!! Funny thing is I haven't seen them anywhere! Wondering if the manufacturer is stopping production

 

I like them, definitely unique. But I also have a set of Teddy Bears, so I guess my opinion doesn't count!

 

I like the wheels but not sure i like the color of em on that color box
